CBD is used to treat many ailments like inflammation, anxiety, insomnia and many other conditions. Over the years, CBD has gained popularity as natural way to treat chronic pain and other afflictions. In addition, taking CBD does not make one high and it can help counteracting negative THC-induced reactions. It is for this reason that people are turning to CBD as a natural alternative to pharmaceuticals.

The best ways to consume CBD will depend on what your goals are. For quick relief, inhalation and sublingual administration are the best because they take effect the quickest. On the other hand, joint pain and achy muscles would best be treated by a topical solution to get localized pain relief.

In general, there are four ways of delivering CBD to the body.

Orally

The mouth is one of the most convenient ways to administer CBD to anyone including children and pets as well. But ingestion is a lengthy process because CBD will have to travel through the digestive system first. CBD is broken down in the liver. This reduces the cannabidiol concentration before it is released into the bloodstream. A study suggests that taking CBD with fatty acids increases the rate of absorption.

The CBD products available for oral administration include CBD oils, capsules, infused candies, and infused foods.

Sublingual

Sublingual administration of CBD is similar to oral administration but it is more efficient. Here, you hold the dose under your tongue for a minute before swallowing what has been left unabsorbed. Sublingual administration is more efficient because you bypass the digestive system and the liver, allowing the cannabidiols to enter the bloodstream immediately. As a result, the effects will usually kick in within few minutes. Sublingual delivery is now the popular method of CBD intake. The CBD products that can be taken sublingually include tinctures, droppers, mouth sprays or pastes.

Topical

Topical administration of CBD is a more targeted pain relief method for specific parts of the body. It is the best way to treat achy joints and sore muscles. In topical administration, the cannabinoids never enter the bloodstream since they are directly absorbed to begin interacting with the cannabinoid receptors in the area.

Unfortunately, the skin has a low absorption rate for cannabinoids because the human skin is not so permeable. As a result, you have to apply a liberal amount of the CBD in order to experience its effects. Therefore, it is important that you choose lotions and salves with high CBD contents because they give a higher chance of getting some reasonable amount of CBD through your skin.

Inhalation

CBD can be inhaled through smoking or vaping. Inhalation is an effective method of administration because it takes effect immediately. With the plenty of low-THC and high-CBD strains and oils that can be vaped, you cannot run out of options to inhale CBD. The lungs have a large surface area for absorption of CBD and the cannabidiols enter the bloodstream after inhalation. Vaping is a quick relief method because CBD oils have greater potency.

CBD has lots of health benefits that can be enjoyed with any method of consumptions.
